TriggerClient() format

[Bl0nkt]

I've been searching for it but can't find it. Can anyone give me an example?

Here's what I currently have:

NPC Code:

---

function onCreated()

{

  player.triggerclient("weapon name", "params");

}



//#CLIENTSIDE

function onActionClientside()

{

  player.chat = "Recieved";

}

---

On serverside:

triggeraction(0, 0, "clientside", name, "params");

It's triggerclient(objecttype, name, params)
Currently only "weapon" works as objecttype, or "gui" which is the same.

NPC Code:

---

player.triggerclient(weaponname,actionname,params)  ;

---

Is what I've been using, and it seems to work.

Let me use an example from this.

NPC Code:

---

function onCreated()

{

  player.triggerclient("Weapon", "Recieve", 1, 2, 3);

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onActionRecieve()

{

  player.chat = "recieved";

}

---

Would this be correct?

its triggerclient("gui",weaponname,param1,param2);

Your problem is that you are expecting it to work like triggeraction and it does not.

It will be:

NPC Code:

---

function onActionServerSide(){

  triggerclient("gui",this.name,"dothis","forme");

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onCreated() triggerserver("gui",this.name,"");

function onActionClientSide(){

  switch (params[0]){

    case "dothis":

      echo(params[1]);  

  }

}

I'm assuming that if you don't use 'object type' for the first parameter, it functions like a normal triggeraction. If you fill in an object type, you will not be able to specify the 'actionname', it always sends actionClientside.

According to Stefan, 'weapon' works aswell.

Yes of course 'weapon' works... but as Stefan said 'gui' and 'weapon' are the same.

The way you worded your reply it sounded like you were criticising his 'player.triggeraction("weapon", ...' format.

triggerclient(npcname, params); works for me.

Probably because the default value for object type (the first parameter) is gui/weapon. But it may change (doubt it) if Stefan adds more object types.

Either way, triggerclient(objtype,name,params) is the 100% correct format.
